trips and Journeys crowd around me.
Sometimes I think that the most delight
full part OF tour occurs after one gets
home. The thousands who have just re-
turned from their toilsome summeriDgs
can appreciate this; memory has 8 way of
sitting out the chaff OF pain and fatigue,
and leaving the grain of pleasure and in
struction where one can get ct it easily.
In looking over old tours, the memory
of
"PEOPLE 1 HAVE NET"
seen and observed crowds always TO the
front. Not only concerning the natives OF
different lands visited, but the fellow
oyagers-comrades in the flibustering
expedition of getting ell the instruction
and amusement possible out of other peo-
ple's countries.
THE LONG-DISTANCE TRAVELLER
is liable to be rather melancholy though
moving spectacle. He has a certain
amount Of time and money TO spend, and
considers it incumbent upon him to get
over the greatest number of miles and be
within a certain list OF weeks
He never takes an after breakfast
train if there is a good, lively, oWlish one
He always rides in third-class compart-
ment while In Europe, because, you see,
he can get over more ground for the
money. He is quite ga nighter," and Of
ten saves time and approaches eternity
by driving and tramping ell day and then
riding all night. When "sight-seeing"
he rushes into great many places, "just
| so as to say he has been there" takes q

parent-eiected sutton. He eats as he
travels-with view to filing the great
est possible amount of space in the least
sect there, even if you can't stay but 8
minute.''
have seen numerous American travel
| lers of this kind, but more English, es-
peciSlly of those touring in this country
because our distances are SO much
greater. I nave known them to start
| from Liverpool and "do' various places,
all the way from New York to San Fran
cisco, coming back another way, and get
ting home again in England two or three
months after they started with material
| for several books on America.

into transports whenever new object is
sighted, and expresses unbounded delight
upon every possible occasion. These
good people are generally 'ffrst trip
pers;" they have not been abroad before,
aud nearly everybody takes it hard the
first time. One Jealous clergyman whom
remember was perpetual fountain of
secondhand delight. Everything he saw
rsined bliss upon him; and even during q
hard fit Of sea-sickness he sVerred, with
a haggard smile, that he had always
wanted to know how it felt, and was
thankful to a gracious Providence for
giving him the opportunity. But his
thanks were rather more ferVent when
he gotNen.
4sSf9s THE DYsPEPTIC TRAVELLER
Is scoWl in trsnsitu-an incarnation Of
that misery which repels company,
whether loving it or not. He is fit
Of sickness on legs-an incipient horror
always threatening to break forth. AS
you look at his froWning countenence
you feel that if he has not murder in his
heart, he has in his stomach; and the
two organs are not so very Ear away from
each other. He loathes all the incidents
OF his tour, and apparently goes to one
place merely because he is Disguised with
another. He strews criticism wherever
he looks, and would have made the world
with it's present surface on the inside If
he had been given the contract.
THE KNOw-EvERYBoDY TRAVELLER
is the worlds neighbor out on little
call. He can tell you who anybody is
almost st the first glance. II he can't,
he'll find out for you in a few minutes.
He carries an intimacy around with him
all ready formed, and will attach it to any
one who can sit down with him or stand
up with him, or walk with him for little
while. If he doesn't know you, he knows
somebody you know, and ever 80 many
people that you don't, and you find your
self acquainted with him whether you
wish to be or not. But he is good ma
tured fellow, and perfectly harmless, and
does great deal of good among taciturn
and homesick people.
The know-everybody lady is not so
much to be desired as her masculine
counterpart; for she is apt to do some
thing Of gossip, and has the power of
making trouble always at her tongues
end.
THE KNoW-NOBODY TRAVELLER
is perambulstlng wall, with himself in
side It, He Is like the two men whom
Gilbert lsughs at in one of his ballads,
that lived near each other on desert
island for years and never spoke, because
there was nobody to introduce them. He
does not wish to be attained; the circle
of his acqusintapces cannot enlarge with
out destroying its symmetry, you see.
He is an atom that does not wish
20 be considered as among atoms, a
Somebody who is obliged TO wander
about among world of Nobodies. II he
has few of his friends with him, and
they will all take hold together and work
in grim harmony, they csn do the
exclusive act in way that will make even
the sncient statuary they encounter shrink
within itself in humble acknowledgement
of their hidden and mysterious merit,
But usually more or less members of 8
party get lonely and raise the banner of
their tongues and smiles 10 rebellion, and
that breass the combination.
The Icily exclusive lady is usually one
whose social position is not sufficiently
assured to warrant her in making new &C.
quaIntances, as they might demean her.
THE KNow-EvERYTBING TRAVELLER
has within him the elements of both help
and terror. He is an appalling collec-
